Chapter 277 Congratulations
Shanghe Village, the whole village is full of smiles today.
We are members of the same clan, and seven children were born in one fell swoop. This is naturally something that the Manchus in the village should be happy about.
The seven families were given wedding money by the people who announced the good news to the yamen. The yamen ate sugar-water eggs and happily sent the people away. Only then did they bother to greet the people in the same village.
The Lu family was orphaned and widowed, and there was no one else in the family. When the Yamen came to visit, it was the uncle's family next door who came to help entertain her.
Now that I was busy, I was entertaining people from the village who came to congratulate me. After all, I was very busy.
After finally finishing her work, Mrs. Lu breathed a sigh of relief and thanked her uncle and family with a smile.
Mrs. Chang couldn't help but said: "Brother Jin is a promising man. In our room, Brother Jin is the only one who can be like his brother-in-law. Sooner or later, you will be able to enjoy Brother Jin's blessings. Just Waiting to become Mrs. Gaoming!”
She really sighed that they had three families and one father. Their family and that of my brother-in-law are both lively and prosperous. Their family is not as good as other families. It has a prosperous population, and my brother-in-law has a lot of family members. Moreover, my brother-in-law also won the imperial examination, but failed to pass the Jinshi examination. It took some time to move around and get along. Yin Zi's candidate went to a small county to become a county magistrate, and he could be considered a serious candidate for finding a way out and becoming an official.
But the second brother-in-law...the second uncle died of illness early, leaving the second younger brother and sister and brother Jin as an orphan and widowed mother. Although they had no worries about food and clothing, they were in a deserted condition.
Brother Jin has been very sick since he was a child. To be honest, they just thought that he could live a long life in peace, but they never thought that he would be successful in studying.
After all, it is the second uncle’s only bloodline. With the second uncle protecting me, after a serious illness, my body has completely recovered. Not only have I seen that everyone has grown stronger, this is still In one fell swoop, a child was born!
Really promising!
Her sons studied only reluctantly, so seeing her nephew's ability, Mrs. Chang was very happy for them, mother and son.
Mr. Lu couldn't help but have tears in her eyes, "I just hope that he will be healthy. It doesn't matter whether he becomes the imperial wife or not. As long as Brother Jin is well, I can do anything!"
Mrs. Chang was thinking about something and said: "I see that Brother Jin is now strong and strong. This is also a great joy for him to be born into a child. He is also sixteen. Seventeen is just a blink of an eye. Look, are you giving it to him?" Have you talked about the marriage? "
The second family has a small heir, so it is natural to delay and let it go. It is also a big deal to marry Brother Jin early and have a wife.
Mr. Lu had been thinking about this in the past. After all, the doctor said that it would be difficult to feed Brother Jin because of his poor health. She just wanted to give him to Brother Jin as soon as he gets older. If your son marries a housewife, at least he will have a wife and a family to carry on.
But now Brother Jin's body is strong and his face is as rosy as a normal person. He also asked a doctor to take his pulse and said that his bones no longer hinder his lifespan.
She is only sixteen, so Lu is not in a hurry.
"Brother Jin himself said that he is not in a hurry about this matter. He said that a good man should first establish a career and then start a family. Now he is only thinking about taking the imperial examination." Dependent on each other, it is said that when you marry, you will obey your husband, and when your husband dies, you will obey your son. Now that her son has grown up, is successful, and has his own ideas, she is also willing to listen to her son.
Ms. Chang did not agree with this, "Having a family does not prevent you from taking the imperial examination. If you have a wife who cares about you, wouldn't Jin Ge's pediatric examination be more effective? Besides, this imperial examination is not that easy. Let's just say Didn’t his brother-in-law take the exam too? It took more than ten years to pass the exam? How can brother Jin still get married?”
Listening to this, Mr. Lu thought that his brother-in-law had indeed taken the exam for many years and failed to take the exam further. He only managed to get a county magistrate by raising his own body.
Can Brother Jin be more powerful than his brother-in-law?
Although she thinks the child is good, taking the imperial examination is indeed not easy.
She was coaxed by the child.
Thinking like this, Mrs. Lu couldn't help but said: "Sister-in-law is right... I will talk to Brother Jin carefully when he comes back." Chang nodded, "Yi is talking about Brother Jin's marriage. , if you want my help, just say it, you also know that my sister’s mother-in-law is the matchmaker.”
Mr. Lu nodded, naturally you can’t go past relatives if you want to find a matchmaker. of.
While the two sisters were talking, a voice came from outside the door, "Is anyone at home?"
Everyone in the village who came to congratulate had congratulated them, but the door of Fan's house was not closed.
Hearing the voices, the two sisters-in-law who were talking in the main room couldn't help but look outside. They saw a man standing at the door of the courtyard, holding something in his hand. It looked like he was coming to congratulate him.
However, they don’t know this person either?
But seeing that he was a young man, he was not so shy. Madam Lu went out to greet him, "Here you are?"
Jiang Bing said politely: "Young Jiang Bing, my eldest son sent me to congratulate Mr. Fan on his success in the test."
As he said that, he respectfully presented the gift box in his hand, and saw Mr. Lu stunned. I couldn't help but add, " My eldest son is Li Rongzong from Xiahe Village across the street, and he is friends with Mr. Fan."
When Mrs. Lu heard about Li Rongzong, she came to her senses and hurriedly reached out to take the gift box, saying something polite. of.
Jiang Bing delivered the congratulatory gifts, completed the girl's instructions, and left without staying any longer.
After he left, Mrs. Chang looked at the gift box and couldn't help but said, "When did Brother Jin become friends with the son of the Li family?"
She was also curious. Now even in her Fan family, no one knew about Li Jihe's family across the street from the Li family. "The Li family is also incredible now. In our family, there are cake makers, sauce makers, and so on." After several generations, none of them are as powerful as his family in making a fortune.”
“Speaking of which, Sister-in-law Xiang also invited a matchmaker to go to Li’s house to find her son. The second daughter of the Li family was about the same age as his Shengzi, but the Li family did not respond. I heard that many people came to the Li family to propose marriage in recent days, and the daughter named Pomegranate was far away. After taking a look at it, it’s really good.”
She said, thinking that the Li family’s son and Brother Jin were still friends, and she couldn’t help but feel excited.
"Speaking of which, Brother Jin and this girl are of the right age..."
Mrs. Lu listened quietly. She naturally knew the current momentum of the Li family opposite. The business went all the way to Zhoucheng. From the very beginning, she bought fructose. Later, Brother Jin often asked her to buy those toys, meat floss, and food.
I heard that these are all the result of the hard work of the pomegranate girl. She is a capable girl. As early as when she first met her selling sweets at the Dafengji, Lu knew that this girl was powerful.
However, Lu did not expect this. At this moment, hearing her sister-in-law talk about it, Mrs. Lu thought about the pomegranate girl she had met, and her heart started to move.
That girl is generous and generous, talks and behaves very nicely, and has a nice smile, which makes people like her. If she is a daughter-in-law, she will be really good.
Just.
“I heard that many people proposed marriage to the Li family, including the Zhou family in Datong Town. As for the Zhou family, I heard from your uncle that the son of the Zhou family also had the reputation of being a child. This year I'm going to take the academy examination. I'm very knowledgeable and will most likely be a scholar.
The Li family even rejected the Zhou family, and even thinking about it, they don’t like our family. ”
